In addition to working with a single file, this Task -can also work on <a href="../Types/resources.html">resources</a> and -resource collections (which also includes directories). Prior to Apache Ant -1.7 only FileSet or <a href="../Types/filelist.html">Filelist</a> -(since Ant 1.6) have been supported.</p> - -<p>Ant uses the API of <code>java.io.File</code> to set the last - modification time which has some limitations. For example the - timestamp granularity depends on the operating system and sometimes - the operating system may allow a granularity smaller than - milliseconds. If you need more control you have to fall back to - the <code><exec></code> task and native commands.</p> - -<p>Starting with Ant 1.8.2 Ant will log a warning message if it fails - to change the file modification time. This will happen if you try - to change the modification time of a file you do not own on many - Unix systems, for example.</p> - -<h3>Parameters</h3> -<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"> - <tr> - <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td> - <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td> - <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td valign="top">file</td> - <td valign="top">The name of the file.</td> - <td valign="top" align="center">Unless a nested resource collection element - has been specified.</td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td valign="top">millis</td> - <td valign="top">Specifies the new modification time of the file - in milliseconds since midnight Jan 1 1970.</td> - <td valign="center" align="center" rowspan="2">No--datetime takes - precedence, however if both are omitted the current time is assumed.</td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td valign="top">datetime</td> - <td valign="top">Specifies the new modification time of the file.

This only applies to filesets nested into the task directly, -not to filesets nested into a path or any other resource -collection.</p> - -<h4>mapper</h4> -<p><em>Since Ant 1.6.3,</em> a nested <a href="../Types/mapper.html"> - mapper</a> can be specified. Files specified via nested - <code>fileset</code>s, <code>filelist</code>s, or the <code>file</code> - attribute are mapped using the specified mapper. For each file mapped, - the resulting files are touched. If no time has been specified and - the original file exists its timestamp will be used. - If no time has been specified and the original file does not exist the - current time is used. Since Ant 1.8 the task settings (<code>millis</code>, - and <code>datetime</code>) have priority over the timestamp of the original - file.</p> -<h3>Examples</h3> -<pre> <touch file="myfile"/></pre> -<p>creates <code>myfile</code> if it doesn't exist and changes the -modification time to the current time.</p> -<pre> <touch file="myfile" datetime="06/28/2000 2:02 pm"/></pre> -<p>creates <code>myfile</code> if it doesn't exist and changes the -modification time to Jun, 28 2000 2:02 pm (14:02 for those used to 24 -hour times).</p> -<pre> <touch datetime="09/10/1974 4:30 pm"> - <fileset dir="src_dir"/> - </touch></pre> -<p>changes the modification time to Oct, 09 1974 4:30 pm of all files and directories - found in <code>src_dir</code>. </p> -<pre> <touch file="myfile" datetime="06/28/2000 2:02:17 pm"/></pre> -<p>creates <code>myfile</code> if it doesn't exist and changes the -modification time to Jun, 28 2000 2:02:17 pm (14:02:17 for those used to 24 -hour times), if the filesystem allows a precision of one second - a -time close to it otherwise.</p> -<pre> <touch file="foo"> - <mapper type="glob" from="foo" to="bar" /> - </touch> -</pre> -<p>creates <code>bar</code> if it doesn't exist and changes the -modification time to that of <code>foo</code>.</p> - -<pre> <touch file="foo" datetime="now"> - <mapper type="regexp" from="^src(.*)\.java" to="shadow\1.empty" /> - </touch> -</pre> -<p>creates files in the <code>shadow</code> directory for every java file in the - <code>src</code> directory if it doesn't exist and changes the modification - time of those files to the current time.</p> - - -</body> -</html> |
